🙋🏻 Me in 1 minute

I’m an explorer, writer, xenophile, dancer, sport lover, truth seeker, people connector, and young entrepreneurial hustler.
I’m also a sucker for people’s stories, serendipitous adventures, intellectual rabbit holes, and different points of view.
I think Taoism, Stoicism, and Buddhism make a lot of sense.
I like Christopher Nolan, FKJ, Caamp, Alicia Keys, conscious capitalism, views from mountain peaks, the pareto principle, Game of Thrones, Lebron, hostels, banter, ideas, speaking Spanish, playing catch, and a good ‘ole workout.
I don’t like bad incentives, tribalism, clickbait news, strong but uneducated opinions, non-walkable cities, reactive healthcare systems, first-past-the-post election systems, bureaucracy, and gossip.
